    I tested podcasts primarily from the german ARD Mediathek and from Podwatch.io
    They work best in XML format, as wxBasic has the corresponding functions for this.
    Support is a bit more difficult in HTML format, but it is generally supported.
    The images for the podcast or episodes are only loaded when the podcast or episode is activated, so there is a short delay.
    Some podcasts offer multiple subscription options. Please always use the link that is closest to the episodes.
